Abstract: To evaluate the efficacy of combined lumbar spinal and epidural (CLSE) anesthesia in retropubic radical prostatectomy. Twenty consecutive patients who underwent radical retropubic prostatectomy by a single surgeon (H.K.) under CLSE anesthesia from July of...
Abstract: To investigate whether Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO2) could improve neurologic deficits and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in chronic traumatic brain injuries (TBI), the authors employed a nonrandomized control pilot trial. Five subjects, at least...
Abstract: A standard rat model of Staphylococcus aureus-induced osteomyelitis was used to compare the effect of HBO2, a local antibiotic carrier (gentamicin-containing collagen sponge) and the combination of HBO2 with a local antibiotic carrier. For the induction of...

Abstract: Few topics in diabetic wound management generate as much "heated" discussion as hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Hyperbaric oxygen is an intermittent inhalation therapy in which the patient breathes oxygen at greater than 1 atm of pressure. This requires...
Abstract: Foot ulcers in individuals with diabetes often are the precursors to lower extremity amputation. The multidisciplinary team approach is highly effective in the prevention and treatment of diabetic foot morbidity. This article focuses on the role of the...
Objective: To evaluate the effect of prolonged courses of hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO2T) on the progressive deterioration of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Design: Prospective study of the disability of 703 MS patients first treated five or more years previ-...
Abstract: Arm lymphedema after surgery or radiation for breast cancer is common, causing pain and limitation of activities. Previous reports of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy for breast edema led us to consider the use of HBO therapy for arm lymphedema. Ten healthy...
Abstract: Heroin abuse causes various medical and surgical complications. We report a case of heroin-induced severe bilateral compartment syndrome complicated by rhabdomyolysis, acute renal failure and extremely elevated creatinine kinase. A 30-year-old male heroin...
